About Me – A Documentary Style Wedding Photographer in South Yorkshire
Hey—I’m Joshua. I’ve been a wedding photographer for over 15 years, having photographed weddings across the Lake District, Cumbria, and beyond. Now, I’ve moved to South Yorkshire for new adventures and for love with my partner, and I’m thrilled to call this beautiful county home.
My approach? About 95% candid, 5% portraits. That balance means your gallery will be full of natural photos that show the real joy of your special day, alongside a few portraits of you as a couple that feel absolutely beautiful.
I’m often told I quietly capture the unforgettable moments—the kind you might not notice on the day itself but will mean the world when you look back. My couples describe me as an amazing photographer who makes the whole process lovely, relaxed, and fun.
